In June 2018, Mummy Meagz will be launching a trio of Rocky Road bars that prove free-from snacking can still be an enjoyable and indulgent experience.
The vegan, gluten-free Rocky Road bars will be launching in a trio of flavors—OOOriginal, OOOrange and MMMinty— that are packaged in colorful, fun wrappers that have the potential to appeal to everyone, regardless of their dietary preferences. Meagz says, "I’m on a mission to show people you don’t need cow’s breast milk to make good chocolate bars."
